When does an archive need onsite digitization?

When a project runs to hundreds or hundreds of thousands of items, crating and shipping become impractical and expensive. Setting up capture where the collection lives keeps material in place and lets us work in scheduled batches with defined milestones.

Some materials shouldn't move: irreplaceable originals, works under insurance or conservation restrictions, or items that can't leave a museum, government archive, or private collection for security or provenance reasons. Onsite imaging removes transit risk entirely.

We scope the work with you, run a small pilot batch to calibrate to your standards, then produce in milestones with conservation-grade handling and chain-of-custody documentation. Pyxartis travels for major projects anywhere in the world.
